Overview
- Kickoff is at 17:00 at the Feliciano Gambarte in Mendoza, with Facundo Tello refereeing, VAR by Lucas Novelli, and live TV on TNT Sports.
- If Aldosivi wins in Mar del Plata, Godoy Cruz are relegated regardless; only a Godoy Cruz victory combined with Aldosivi not winning triggers a playoff within 72 hours at a neutral venue with extra time and penalties if needed.
- Godoy Cruz sit last in the annual table with 28 points, trailing Aldosivi and San Martín on 30, in a season with one drop by annual standings and another by the three-season average.
- Coach Omar Asad plans a more attacking XI, bringing in Daniel Barrea, Tomás Rossi and Andrés Meli for Pol Fernández, Juan Morán and Lucas Arce, and shifting to a 3-4-3 to chase the win.
- The club’s spiral features only one home win all year, an eight-match winless run and no victories since returning to the Gambarte, after cycling through four coaches: Ernesto Pedernera, Esteban Solari, Walter Ribonetto and now Asad.
